Free Bird

Fernando, is that you?

I loved it. Thought the sound of the first few songs were a little bit muddy but that got fixed and the band is like a good oiled machine just running and running, delivering an intense 2 hours rock show full of energy. It’s crazy how critical they’re viewed on this forum but how they’re able to rock the crowd with basically almost own songs, including mosh pits and singalongs. My personal highlight was Wicked Stone, which was very well received by everyone around me. The little blues part he worked into WS’s solo was phenomenal. Starting as a slow blues number, getting faster and faster until it morphed into some kind of a metal tune. I thought it might contained some elements of Metal Chestnut. Would be great. Myles shined on Rocket Man which was very well received by the audience as well. I still prefer Slash on guitar, though

Heading to the gig now

You’re probably not well informed but Slash with SMKC have outsell arenas with a capacity of 14-15 thousand here in Europe. I don’t know how well his current tour is attended but he has pulled arena crowds regularly outside of the US

Anybody heard that in full?

It isn’t on European YouTube either. Maybe on Friday like usually? Haven’t heard about a release so far.

But it would be lame to dislike the song because of the title.

Nothing more ridiculous than Since I Don’t Have You

Did they have a label deal back then or was it still prior?

The Garden

Hopefully they have a blast touring this record and they come along pretty well with each other. Maybe they start writing some kind of new music all together while touring and sound checking and it’s the beginning of something really great

Oh I missed this one, thanks. Wonder how Chris Stapleton sounds on it, but the instrumental of Oh Well is pretty awesome.

Sorry, link seemingly doesn’t lead directly to the snippet. But it’s out there, somewhere on Insta and Twitter. And it’s the one I’m the most excited for, based on the material we got to so far. Sounds brilliant, even if it’s just 10 sec. snippet.

Anybody listened to the new snippet? holy mthfr https://www.instagram.com/reel/C40va43PgGm/?igsh=NTkzM250bzJwaHV3

Never gonna happen because You just can’t handle Axl this responsibility and hope for a release anytime soon

Not the best quality but it’s a first look on the album cover sleeve

He seems heavy influenced by Slash and Perry 😄

Have fun tonight. I have to wait til Monday!

Anybody knows Dorothy? I’m not familiar with their/her songs but there’s a Slash guest appearance in the Troubadour on Gifts From The Holy Ghost. Not bad. I also like the studio version. Here’s the song with Slash I don’t know the song she sings on Slash’s album either so I have no idea what to expect.

Usually he opens the doors around seven, goes up on stage around nine. Rocking the shit until 11. Sipping a drink and feeling fine. Seriously, it was like that in the past. I assume it’s still like that but somebody who attended a show this year can surely confirm.

1. Killing Floor 2. Hard Skool (Slash’s stamp all over it) 3. The General (outro contains the best guitar part out of the new GNR songs 4. Absurd 5. Perhaps (probably the best written song of the new singles but the one with the weakest guitar solo and the most annoying chorus ‘heey heeeeeeey’) 6. I’m Just Ken (great performance during the Oscars but nothing I’d listen to in private. Great work, though)

After all there has to be a reason why he went to the studio in the first place, right? edit: maybe there will be some kind of bonus disc in a potential deluxe edition with songs and singers who didn’t make the final cut.

Hopefully this record leads to some more cool collaborations. This first one was amazing and Steven Tyler was a big part of it. A song with him as vocalist would be even cooler, though.

Yeah most of the songs are longer than its original

Lets say I forgot
